ESMB LAUNCHES WEBINARS
The ESMB Webinar Series will be inviting guest speakers from around the globe, to present their work which is linked with the exciting field of Marine Biotechnology. Topics will range from wood-eating animals and their biotechnological potential, to plastic degrading enzymes, microbe-deriving bioactive compounds, aquaculture and biofouling and many many more. We hope this Webinar Series will act as a platform for promoting and further enhancing collaborations while offering a window to new developments and stimulate interesting scientific conversations.

Several proposals were presented to the ESMB Board, which made some suggestions for minor adjustments before the final result was professionally set into graphic files by the graphic designer of the university, Bärbel Ballaschke. The new logo will be officially used in all documents and on the website. The winners of the logo competition: Josephine Friedel and Leo Struve (clicking on photos enlarge them).
